N. GRAHAM defeated
s M. Aungst for Prosecuting
Attorney of Stark county on November H. "Nothing new in that
statement," did 1 hear someone say?
There isn't. I am not going to discuss the election. It is the name Graham. It lias a familiar sound to me.
When this writer was a boy in
Brooklyn, New York, George S. Graham was Prosecuting Attorney of that
large city. He wa.s a handsome fellow with rosy cheeks, a lawyer of the
highest standing, and an orator second lo none. He was in his 30's, and
he was a real terror to evil-doers. He
was one of my neighbors. In politics
he was a Democrat.
t t t
YEARS later this writer was working for a Philadelphia, Pa., newspaper when he was introduced to
George S. Graham, "a rising young
attorney," in that city. The resemblance between the Brooklyn Graham |
and the Philadelphia Graham was
startling. They looked like twins.
Handsome, well-groomed and gentlemen, every inch of them.
As time went on George and this
writer became firm friends. He was a
Republican, and he lined-up with the
crowd opposed to Matthew Stanley
Quay. When the daily paper I wrote
for wanted inside facts on political
affairs the managing editor (Darwin
G. Fenno) would call me into his
room and say:
"You and the Old Man (Senator
Quay) are pretty good friends. Ask
him what he is going to do about so-
and-so."
t i ±
SOMETIMES I found Quay at a local hotel; occasionally 1 went to
Harrisburg, Atlantic City or
A
McClintock or John McKwi eney knew
him. He was a teal orator and a
groat Prosecutor.
I never saw George N. Graham of
Canton, and I do not know anything
about his ability as a lawyer. This
much 1 do know: If he possesses half
the ability of the Grahams mentioned
above then Canton is going to get
fine service in thc Prosecutor's oll'ice.
The George Grahams of thi; old days
wei'o more than ordinary stars, they
were comets when they began to shine.
Words of Wisdom
JUDGE of the Federal Court of
Appeals, speaking over the air,
made an illuminating statement
which it would be well for all Americans to take to heart—"God can get
along without America, but America
can not get along without God."
No greater truth has ever been uttered, but how many of the millions
who heard him a few days ago remember his words of wisdom now?
The Socialist Vote
ORMAN THOMAS, the Socialist
nominee, polled approximately 40
votes in North Canton. This does
not mean that there are 40 Socialists
in this town. As a matter of fact, the
Socialists have not polled more than
two votes in previous campaigns. The
Thomas vote was a "protest" against
things as they are in Washington.
Several business men, well known to
this writer, said weeks ago they were
going to vote for the Rev. Dr.
Thomas, and they did. Politically they
belong to the Republican party.

A MEMBER of the Rotary club
asked me if I thought "Socialism is coming?" My answer was

On page two of The Sun today the

situation as it exists in Ohio today.
The editorial, written in The Sun office, by the regular editorial writer of
this newspaper, deals in facts, not in
fancies.
The schools in North Canton do not
feel the depression, and it is, to the
credit of our citizenship that they
have escaped the blight. When a
town neglects its schools it is not
slipping—it has slipped. After you
have read the editorial we believe you
will agree with The Sun that a school
is something more than "bricks and

On Thursday morning, Nov. 24, the

Scene From "Mrs. Plimpton's Husband"
Nothing could be a more fitting close to the Festival series in the Community Building than a good, wholesome, modern comedy. The selection of
"Mrs. Plimpton's Husband" was made after much deliberation and it will
be certain to meet the approval of the audience tomorrow night, Nov. 17.
This play is a story of a modern American family and each character
can be compared to some one with whom we are familial- in real life. There
is always a Mr. Plimpton and a Mrs. Plimpton in every neighborhood. There
also is always a love story woven in, and this play includes an especially
pleasing one. It moves from the ludicrous to the pathetic and works up to
a delightful climax.
A Good Comedy
Nothing has yet been found to take the place of a good comedy and
"Mrs. Plimpton's Husband" i.s known as a most popular one.
A professional cast of four, professionally directed, will appear here. We
should support the efforts of the management in bringing good drama, capably presented to this community.

the pleasure of seeing the charter presented to them in due form on Monday night in the Masonic Temple.
Past Grand Master Harvey Ake, as
acting grand master, made the presentation address.
Many men, prominent in all walks
of life, attended the ceremony.

In his last stand for the U. S. Senate in which he defeated John Wana-
maker, Quay thought enough of me to
ask me to travel with him as his "war
correspondent."
£ i f.
A FEW months before that celebrated political battle the State Legislature refused to elect him to
the Senate. Then came his trial for
malfeasance while State Treasurer. I
went to Quay and as near as I can
recall—it was in 1899—he said:
"This case is outlawed, and a motion to dismiss the charges against
me would be sustained by any Court.
I But I am innocent. I am also weary
I of hearing the statement that I stole
the public's money while State Treasurer. George Graham wants' a crack
at me, and I am going to give him
his chance. I want my name vindicated. Let me assure you on one
point. Under no circumstances will
my lawyers fall back on the statute of
limitations."
The jury acquitted Quay,

GOVERNOR STONE appointed Quay
to the Senate. That body turned
him down, Vest of Missouri, a
friend of many years' standing, voting against seating the Pennsylvan-
ian. One vote turned the trick. The
following year the Old Man, as Quay
was known to newspaper men, was
elected to the Senate.
Years later, after Quay's death,
George S. Graham became a Judge.
Then he went to Congress. Perhaps
S°
FAR as goes by limited study of
ancient history and scientific research into history more ancient
still, all the evidence leads on to one
conclusion; namely, that Socialism or
Communism of one sort or another
comes at the close of each civilization and continues in more or less
mollified form during the ages of
semi-savagery and primitive life
which fill the interlude between the
fall of one civilization and the rise of
that which follows.
Among the various tribes of American Indians—so far as I can learn—
there was very little private ownership of property, while among the
Incas, who at the time of the Spanish
invasion were still a civilized people,
though far below the level of their
ancestors, Communism seems to have
been the ruling- force among them.
t t t
AMONG African and Asiatic lower
tribes the same rule holds good,
I think, and while I cannot state
authoritatively that Socialism has
come at the end of every civilization,
I do at least feel safe in stating that
it has never had a part in the beginning or al any time during the rise
of civilized life.
There are of course many who still
cling to the belief that this, our own
particular civilization, is somehow
different and will go on forever, just
as the ancient Romans believed that
"Eternal Rome" would never die, and
for those who hold to such a belief it
might be only the natural assumption
that Socialism is but another step forward along the line of endless progress.

The effect of hard playing Showed

There isn't. I am not going to discuss the election. It is the name Graham. It lias a familiar sound to me.
When this writer was a boy in
Brooklyn, New York, George S. Graham was Prosecuting Attorney of that
large city. He wa.s a handsome fellow with rosy cheeks, a lawyer of the
highest standing, and an orator second lo none. He was in his 30's, and
he was a real terror to evil-doers. He

he was a Democrat.

YEARS later this writer was working for a Philadelphia, Pa., newspaper when he was introduced to
George S. Graham, "a rising young

and the Philadelphia Graham was
startling. They looked like twins.
Handsome, well-groomed and gentlemen, every inch of them.
As time went on George and this

The Socialist Vote
ORMAN THOMAS, the Socialist
nominee, polled approximately 40
votes in North Canton. This does
not mean that there are 40 Socialists
in this town. As a matter of fact, the
Socialists have not polled more than
two votes in previous campaigns. The
Thomas vote was a "protest" against
things as they are in Washington.
Several business men, well known to
this writer, said weeks ago they were
going to vote for the Rev. Dr.
Thomas, and they did. Politically they
belong to the Republican party.

On page two of The Sun today the

situation as it exists in Ohio today.
The editorial, written in The Sun office, by the regular editorial writer of
this newspaper, deals in facts, not in
fancies.
The schools in North Canton do not
feel the depression, and it is, to the
credit of our citizenship that they
have escaped the blight. When a
town neglects its schools it is not
slipping—it has slipped. After you
have read the editorial we believe you
will agree with The Sun that a school
is something more than "bricks and
mortar."

Union Service, N'ov. 21
On Thursday morning, Nov. 24, the
congregations of the three churches
will meet in Zion Reformed church at

prove no exception to the general rule.

Scene From "Mrs. Plimpton's Husband"
Nothing could be a more fitting close to the Festival series in the Community Building than a good, wholesome, modern comedy. The selection of
"Mrs. Plimpton's Husband" was made after much deliberation and it will
be certain to meet the approval of the audience tomorrow night, Nov. 17.
This play is a story of a modern American family and each character
can be compared to some one with whom we are familial- in real life. There
is always a Mr. Plimpton and a Mrs. Plimpton in every neighborhood. There
also is always a love story woven in, and this play includes an especially
pleasing one. It moves from the ludicrous to the pathetic and works up to
a delightful climax.
A Good Comedy
Nothing has yet been found to take the place of a good comedy and
"Mrs. Plimpton's Husband" i.s known as a most popular one.
A professional cast of four, professionally directed, will appear here. We
should support the efforts of the management in bringing good drama, capably presented to this community.

A FEW months before that celebrated political battle the State Legislature refused to elect him to
the Senate. Then came his trial for
malfeasance while State Treasurer. I
went to Quay and as near as I can
recall—it was in 1899—he said:
"This case is outlawed, and a motion to dismiss the charges against
me would be sustained by any Court.
I But I am innocent. I am also weary
I of hearing the statement that I stole
the public's money while State Treasurer. George Graham wants' a crack

FAR as goes by limited study of
ancient history and scientific research into history more ancient
still, all the evidence leads on to one
conclusion; namely, that Socialism or
Communism of one sort or another
comes at the close of each civilization and continues in more or less
mollified form during the ages of
semi-savagery and primitive life
which fill the interlude between the
fall of one civilization and the rise of
that which follows.
Among the various tribes of American Indians—so far as I can learn—
there was very little private ownership of property, while among the
Incas, who at the time of the Spanish
invasion were still a civilized people,
though far below the level of their
ancestors, Communism seems to have
been the ruling- force among them.
t t t
AMONG African and Asiatic lower
tribes the same rule holds good,
I think, and while I cannot state
authoritatively that Socialism has
come at the end of every civilization,
I do at least feel safe in stating that
it has never had a part in the beginning or al any time during the rise
of civilized life.
There are of course many who still
cling to the belief that this, our own
particular civilization, is somehow
different and will go on forever, just
as the ancient Romans believed that
"Eternal Rome" would never die, and
for those who hold to such a belief it
might be only the natural assumption
that Socialism is but another step forward along the line of endless progress.
